I'm twenty-two, but in just over a month I will be twenty-three. For some reason twenty-three seems the oldest age I've ever been. And yes, I know that sounds dim and obvious in the extreme, but I didn't quite mean it like that - I mean that the number '23' conjures up notions of responsibility and adulthood and council tax that I've never really encountered before.

I'm turning 18 in about 18 days time and I'm dreading it. I hate how everyone assumes once you turn 18, you going to turn into some alchie. My brother is trying to get me down the pub for my 18th and it is really annoying now. I've tried alcoholic and I hate the taste of it. Serious, what is wrong with not being a drinker?

I'm not a drinker. I don't like the taste of alcohol and I don't like pubs. Once my Dad took me to a pub and I bumped into this man and he spilt his pint down his front and my Dad had to buy him another one.

I don't drink because I just don't like alcohol. When I got to university I was quite surprised by the number of students who either drank only occasionally or didn't drink at all. It's not that strange, Remus.

Im a very girlie drinker ive been told i like archers and lemonde which is peach snapps, and i like malibu and sometimes wine. But theres plenty of alcoholic drinks i dont like the taste of espec beer bleugh.
